In my families case it was a long horrific goodbye in the type she suffered. A complete personality change from soft hearted loving woman to a violent crazed maniac taking several people to hold her down. It was awful - she was no longer herself....this went on for two years plus. But she was loosing her memory for 4 yrs prior to that. I prayed the Lord would take her home as she suffered so.

You wrote...Plato once observed “Death is not the worst that can happen to men’’.

Those who have walked this walk with a loved one understand that fully....

I know. It took my mother and her two older siblings.

Dementia is a living death.
